plus, that means your minibot would be running the entire autonomous and teleop match, leaving no battery life left
not necessarily, you could have a three way switch that connects the battery directly to the motor forward, backwards, and off, and the main robot could turn it on, deploy it, it would hit the top, flipping the switch, sending it in reverse. No wasted battery, no code
